Default Will evo 8 bembo calipers fit on my z28?

So a friend has a totaled evo 8 and i can get the calipers for fairly cheap. just was wondering if these were the same as the cts-v even tho evo 8 have 13" rotor compared to the cts-v 14". so i will just follow that write up. i know new lines and rotor will be required.
thanks

If the evo and the camaro have the same thickness rotors, it's nothing but a caliper bracket swap away from working.


Any caliper (designed for the same rotor thickness) can be made to work on ANY vehicle if a Bracket with the proper depth and diamter spacing is made.

Now, can you make your own bracketry?

Im not sure, but I dont think the bolt pattern is the same. Also, you would need a custom bracket made to pull the caliper closer to the center of the rotor 1 inch, and have the correct offset. I think it would be too much work, but if you do get it to work, this would be a nice option for 17" wheels with enough clearance.
